Design the 2018 Competitor Shirt

So you think you have the skills to design a shirt? This is your chance to design the 2018 Official 4 & Rotary Competitor Shirt. These are the shirts given to all the competitors at the Nationals, Champs and Jamboree. With a huge prizepack up for grabs, what better chance to test out your design skills and get rewarded for it.

The Game Changer is here!

Having been around for 22 years now, the 4 & Rotary Nationals is the biggest and longest running automotive and lifestyle event of its kind in the country. We got this far by continuously evolving and bringing new ideas and features to the table. No one wants to see the same old thing year after year.

The 2018 V 4 & Rotary Nationals will see the biggest change to date in all its 22 years. We will reformat the entire event to take place over two weekends, and will join forces with Pukekohe Park Raceway. The main course of the event will still be held over Auckland’s Anniversary weekend with an extra date in April to ensure drag racers aren’t missing out on any of the action. Here’s how it’s going to go down.

The reason for the swap is simple. To bring you even more action and entertainment over the event season. Chrome Expression Session has been dominating in popularity over the past few years and will be a welcomed addition under the 4 & Rotary Nationals banner. We find January is a little too early for all the Pro Import drag racing cars to be hitting the track therefore, the new April date will be much better suited. Drag Racers are still more than welcome to join us at the Pukekohe Event to showcase what they can do.

We’ve already got some exciting features lined up, including an Australian Street Invasion so stay tuned for more details!

For 20 years now we’ve been bringing the international drag racing stage to NZ in the form of overseas guests at the V Energy NZ 4 & Rotary Nationals. Pac Performance from Australia were one the first teams to land on NZ soil back in 1999 when our scene was based around Rotaries. What better team to bring over to celebrate our 20th year anniversary than Pac Performance, with their wheel stands, flaming two steps and high powered rotaries!
